duke football news

I'm not sure what the NLI concept achieved, with football recruits routinely breaking verbal commitments.

The NCAA is running scared. It has lost every legal battle and is just knuckling under to any challenge. The only thing keeping the wealthiest schools (i.e., those that have alums who would rather give to football programs than academic programs) from collecting every highly ranked athlete is that some athletes would rather actually play rather than sit on the bench and collect their paychecks. Those are the athletes that Duke will need to focus on.
